A local scrap metal yard got more bang for their buck than they expected on Monday. Workers at LB Recycling in Covington discovered a box full of dynamite had been delivered with a load of scrap metal shortly before 3 p.m. Up to 10 emergency personnel from the Covington Police, Georgia Bureau of Investigation's Bomb Squad and the Covington Fire Department responded to the situation. There seemed to be no criminal intent involved and no charges have been filed, according to the Covington Police Department.
